Forced Jewish Accommodation (Zwangsquartier)

"Hiring" and Forced living"

Life in the Jewish houses.

The "Law on the rent and lease to Jews" of 30 April 1939 formed the basis for the isolation of Jews from the non-Jewish population of Hameln and for their shelter in "Jewish houses". In addition, the Jewish residents had to be "compulsorily" interned in relatively few houses, if possible in Jewish ownership.
